IowaDIY 2025

My speakers are fully assembled and it’s only Wednesday night. I think I am in for lunch on Friday. I still have some beverage shopping to do…

Friday’s afternoon and evening forecast is for 78 with scattered showers. Saturday high is 75. Sunday morning they are talking wind chills in the mid 30’s.

My speakers are ready to go.

I’ll be arriving today so I can settle in and maybe spend some time with nearby family/friends I haven’t seen in a while. Do we have the conference room all of Friday? I may unload earlier in the day if possible as mine are a bit unwieldy and will require some assembly.

Won’t be making the drive to Iowa this year. Shawn has some personal business and 8+ hours driving without a completed project, well…maybe next year!

Cheers / Robert

Ready to load the Mighty Sorento.

That’s a shame, sir. Tell Shawn I said hi.

I took the day off from work and my only real task is to lash the crossover parts down, solder them up and mount them in the cabinets.

Finished these up last weekend and have put them through a little vinyl, a couple CDs, a little YouTube, and I think they’re worthy. :guitar: :violin: :saxophone: We’ll see how they go over soon.

Those look great! I love that HiVi planar tweeter. What Peerless midbass is that? Guess I’ll find out in a day or two.

My car is loaded. Taking my kids to school in the morning and then heading west for Ankeny. Trying to decide if I should bring any of my extra drivers to sell… I always seem to load them up, then drag them back home again. I’m usually asking 25-30% of new prices :frowning:

Driving up solo tomorrow morning, should be there around noon and hungry! I still need to book my room.

I’d offer for you to share my room Mike if I had two queen beds… but I have a room with only a single king.

No worries, I wasn’t fishing for a room. Didn’t mean it to be interpreted that way. Appreciate the offer. I am just a last minute decision/planning person. Usually Ashley handles that stuff. Looking forward to catching up with people.

I’m bringing a bunch of very good drivers that I simply will never get around to using. My Post-It pad prices are just a starting talking point. Please feel free to make me offers. Just not 50 cents for a $100 driver.

Like the 4x celestion 15"s I have. Meant to try a pair of ripole subs. But probably will never get around to it. I doubt there is much interest in them even for half price of the clearance price I got on em.

Head count, who will be there around lunch time? I plan on about noon myself.

Let me know! 605-940-9651

Do you take kidneys and/or children?

Sadly, I had to quit.

@JasonP and I should be rolling in around 3:00-3:30pm. Hold a couple seats for us. :slight_smile:
